Richmond: Spaces still available for Little Loco's Big Day at the Library 18th Aug



Local author and archaeologist Caroline Hardie is coming to our libraries this summer!
At these free events, she will read from her picture book Little Loco’s Big Day, a story about a very important day – the start of our modern railway 200 hundred years ago.

Hear the uplifting tale of the first locomotive, now known as Locomotion No.1, which ran nearby on the Stockton & Darlington Railway.

Perfect for families, places are FREE. Please contact the library directly to book.

Please note: We are now FULL at Catterick, but we have spaces at Richmond's session on the 18th
